Planning guides · Before you book
Five short reads for a trip with big distances and only two days.
Uluru from the road. A reference photo of the landscape, not a particular tour.
A short Uluru trip leaves little room for surprises.
Planning a short trip to Uluru can be tricky. The distances are long, tours start from different places, inclusions vary from one operator to the next and two days goes quickly. These guides set out each of those questions in plain English, so you can compare carefully selected two-day Uluru tours knowing what to look for.
01 · Distances
Departure points differ between operators.
Distances and departure points are among the first things to think about. They shape how much of your two days goes on sightseeing and how much on travel. Start here if you’re still choosing where to start from.
02 · Region 01
Get to know the country before you arrive.
A traveller’s introduction to the part of the Northern Territory where our featured tours run, written with respect for the place and its Traditional Owners.
03 · Inclusions
Some packages include guided sightseeing at Uluru and a visit to Kata Tjuta. Flights to the Territory and extra nights are often not included. Here’s how to check.
04 · Prices
The operator, your dates, the season, accommodation, passenger category, group size, meals, national park fees and upgrades can all change the final price.
05 · Fit
Two days suits many trips. If you’d like to explore the whole Red Centre slowly or stay several nights, a longer trip may suit you better.
